Ruth Nevo has come to a juncture between east and west, and here the twain meet those works, often created in indoor workshops, were meant to be examined from one end of the scroll to the other as it was unfurled to reveal the vistas painted. In scroll paintings, In contrast to scroll paintings, Nevo\u2019s works are meant to be viewed in their totality at a single viewing. Poetry, illusion, the indelible sense of being present in nature, and chiefly, color combine potently in these works, which grapple at once with a narrow eastern format and a western approach to space.

\nThese new paintings arose from the spell cast upon me by the long low flowing lines of the northern Negev. I discovered that \u201cdistance is the aim for the imaginary traveler\u201d, in life and in art \u2013 the actual traveler seeking leisure seclusion or perhaps some magnificent prospect, and the painter for whom every outing is an occasion for imagined compositions. It was not a specific locality that I wished to record. Nor does our own topography offer sublime vistas or rich forest retreats. It was rather the capturing of certain magic configurations, there in the ordinary landscape for all to see, where the pleasurable experience of both painter and traveler converge.
